Palamós walks

The visit to the Cap Roig botanical garden is just an excuse, as the views along this coastal path are splendid and alone make this hike worthwhile. The many fine sandy beaches nestled in the coves, the typical fishermen's houses and the various forests you pass through are remarkable.

This loop starting from Sa Riera initially runs through woodland and leads to the pretty site of Torre de Mas d'en Pinc at the entrance to Begur. You quickly cross the eastern residential areas before rejoining the Cami de Ronda. This trail runs along a balcony offering magnificent views and leads to Cala Sa Punta, then to Cala Aiguafreda, two discreet and idyllic spots for swimming in the summer. The final section also offers many other opportunities for swimming from the easily accessible rocks along the coast. Despite the distance, the real difficulty of this hike should not be underestimated, as it can be tricky to find your way due to the large number of unmarked paths and several very steep ascents and descents that will leave you breathless and your legs aching.

Starting from San Feliu de Guixols, this hike is divided into two distinct parts of very different difficulty. The first part takes you through the hills via a well-marked path through beautiful pine undergrowth. It then leads to the delightful Cala Canyets, a little haven of peace even in high season. The return journey follows the old Cami de Ronda route, which has now been diverted and is therefore unmarked. The paths leading to Cala d'Urgell and then to the tiny Cala d'en Bosc are indistinct and difficult to follow in a rather steep environment where great care is required. The passage of large boulders along the seashore along these two coves also presents a certain challenge. The end of the route partly follows the GI-682 and then rejoins the starting route for greater comfort. A beautiful adventure in prospect, but reserved for very good walkers who are able to find their way in difficult terrain and cope with very steep slopes

Tour above Torroella to Castle of Montgri, via Montplà and Garrigars pass.Superb 360° panorama. Caution : not very accessible with children, as you have to do a lot of scrambling in the rocks, and there's a steep section in a scree slope.

This typically Mediterranean circular in the Montgrí Illes Medes i Baix Ter Natural Park alternates between open heath landscapes and wooded areas. Montgri Castle, built in the 13th century, dominates the entire region and offers spectacular views. The Hermitage of Santa Caterina, founded by hermits in the 14th century, is an ideal place to take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in a place steeped in history, celebration and encounters.

Starting from Tossa de Mar, this challenging hike first leads to Santa Maria de Llorell and its magnificent villas, before descending to the Cami de Ronda. This magnificent coastal path is a rollercoaster ride, sometimes very challenging, passing through several beautiful coves and beaches, where it will be difficult to resist a welcome swim in the summer. The end of the route takes you back to the gates of Tossa de Mar, where the bravest and least tired may take the time to visit the old town surrounded by ramparts. Despite its relatively modest distance, the difficulty of this route should not be underestimated, as it includes several very tricky sections and particularly steep slopes, both uphill and downhill, on slippery ground.

Set off from Montgó Beach for a spectacular circular walk. Follow the GR®92 to Port de l'Escala, with breathtaking views, and return through the narrow streets steeped in history. A walk between sea and heritage.

This route links Lloret de Mar to Tossa de Mar along the old coastal path "Camino de Ronda". It offers many panoramic views, as well as the crossing of numerous coves of varying steepness. Warning : the off-GR® section has some fairly difficult stretches. It is, however, possible to keep to the GR® which circumnavigates Santa Maria de Lloret between points (3) and (12) but the latter passes inland, greatly reducing theinterest of this hike.

Hike in the creeks and on Sant Francesco beach (Costa Bianca), allowing you to explore the creeks without going inland. Parking is difficult on Carrer Mirador de la Cala, but accessible via the middle of the hike (Passeig Bitacora).

Discover the Parc Naturel des Aiguamolls de l'Empordà, Catalonia's second largest wetland.All along the route, there are facilities accessible to all for wildlife observation.

A lovely, very easy walk in a nature reserve where you can see Camargue horses, flamingos and other species of birds. You can even walk all the way to the sea.

This is a two-part hike. The first part consists of a short detour inland to gain altitude and enjoy beautiful views of Roses Bay and the Catalan Pyrenees before returning to the coast at Montjoi. The return journey is along the coast via the Cami de Ronda, which follows the coastline and allows you to discover several small coves and magnificent beaches offering excellent swimming spots in the summer. At the end of the route, a short detour to the Falconera viewpoint and its immense panorama provides a beautiful conclusion to this circular route.

Walk around the Estany de Banyoles, Catalonia's largest natural lake. It's a place of exceptional beauty, with a well-laid-out trail that takes in wildlife observation areas and fishermen's cottages on the lake's shores.
